Mission
Statement
Empowering Youth. Celebrating Greatness!
Youth are
considered the most productive members of society, and the future leaders of
tomorrow due to their physical and intellectual capacity. However, there are
some youth who are unable to demonstrate their potential life’s worth due to
lack of guidance or poor choices. Today a large number of youth engage in
antisocial activities, which create social problems like alcoholism, drug
abuse, sexual abuse, substance abuse etc. These habits deteriorate their
physical and intellectual capabilities and can be a burden to society. Youths
are at risk of engaging in many antisocial activities that adversely affects
other members of society.
Taking Control –
will teach empowerment, communication, life option, applications, recovery from
addiction, suicide prevention, behavioral health, bullying, sexual relationships, Whats Legal & Appropriate and What's Not and health care within the classes to be announced.
The goals for the
Taking Control program are to;

Taking Control aims to provide students with strategies to
